Marine Le Pen “defends the French people who voted for the National Rally, 11 million voters who do not have the right to be insulted by a trainee minister who has just arrived, who apparently does not know the codes”said MP Laurent Jacobelli on franceinfo on Wednesday, September 25. The RN spokesperson and vice-president of the group in the National Assembly reacted as Prime Minister Michel Barnier called Marine Le Pen after the Economy Minister’s remarks. Antoine Armand had declared on France Inter that, during the discussions on the budget, his door would be open to MPs from all parties in the“republican arc“, except those of the RN.
“A voter, even if he voted for the National Rally, can never be considered a second-class voter.insists Laurent Jacobelli. A deputy is never a sub-deputy.”
RN spokesperson denounces “a government made of bits and pieces” constituted “of parties that were rejected by the French”with “on one side Macronie, and on the other side the LR which has become a dying party.”
These two political forces “have no capacity to despise anyone and especially not the leading party in France”believes the deputy of Moselle. The statement of the Minister of Economy assuring “that he would invite to his table all schools of thought, all political groups except the National Rally, that is called exclusion, that is called contempt, that is also called the refusal to face reality.”
Laurent Jacobelli also believes that the new Minister of the Interior Bruno Retailleau “learned the program well” of the National Rally. The minister indicated on TF1 on Monday that he wanted “take all means to reduce immigration in France”reform state medical aid (AME) or even re-establish “the crime of illegal residence”.
Bruno Retailleau “recite” the RN program “perfectly and almost to the last comma”notes Laurent Jacobelli. “I’m not going to tell you that we’re not happy with that.” But the RN MP says “worried” by “the entourage” of the Minister of the Interior. He points to the new Minister of Justice, Didier Migaud, “who tells us that judicial laxity does not exist in France”. He recalls “terrible news” of the student found dead in the Bois de Boulogne on Saturday, “killed by a foreigner, a Moroccan under an unexecuted OQTF”. “There are all the flaws of justice in this story which cost the life of a young girl from France”adds Laurent Jacobelli.
